Earth Day Mandala

For some reason, this background, created using suminagashi inks, just said Earth for me when I started looking through a stack of backgrounds…I wasn’t particularly looking for something for Earth Day then, as I had something entirely different in mind at the time–but when I saw this…it felt right, so I went with it…

I added white gesso to the background to push the colors back some so that the mandala would stand out a bit more.

Those flowers just keep showing up in my work…so I keep going with them….
